KI-61 Ace's profiles

The Ki-61 is a very swift looking aircraft.   Being the only water cooled WW2 Japanese aircraft. Always liked the aircraft.

1/32 P-61 Black Widow by Bodo Cordes

Here is what he said about the model.

Hello,
it took me one year to finish this kit and I tried to build it as correct as I could. I used quite a lot of after market stuff, such as the Eduard BIGED, the Avionix sets for the Cockpit, the wheels are Eduard Brassin for the B-25, the engines Brassin for the Corsair. The oxygen bottles in the wheel wells are 3D printed. The markings are painted and the nose art decals are custom made.
I hope you like it!
